The lymphatic system plays a critical role in the body. Its primary function is to transport and dispose of waste material from tissues into the bloodstream. This includes the removal of fats, proteins, water, and other organic and inorganic cell material, as well as foreign organisms like viruses and bacteria.
During the transportation process, lymph fluid is filtered, cleaned and concentrated. Many immune reactions occur in the lymph nodes. When pathways become congested, blocked or damaged, fluids can build up in connective tissues, leading to potential problems.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage (MLD) can assist in maintaining the flow and function of this critical system.
MLD can treat a wide variety of conditions, including, *post operative surgery
*joint replacement
*osteoarthritis
*constipation/digestion
*sinus congestion
*headaches/migraines
*vertigo
*TMJ
*tendonitis
*COPD, bronchitis
*chronic inflammation
Benefits of MLD
Through manipulation of skin and lymph vessels mld promotes faster lymph flow and stimulates formation and regrowth of new connections of lymph vessels.
